Ask HN: Are there any academic journals that are free and provide open access?
We're recently seeing a lot of news on this site about how Sci-Hub is causing the downfall of subscription journals. How "evil" subscription journals really are. At the moment is there a generalised alternative?
(If not, are there any HN'ers out there that would feel like creating an open source platform with me?)
